Today's the day, vote done 

The MLS poll is getting some attention on twitter, bizitalk just pinged me, although a smaller sample, pretty much the same results.

Now closing our poll, so final tally, 8,483 votes!

If it turns out to be a 70% win for the remain campaign, although I think it's good, it would certainly raise a few questions...

Just visited the Bizitalk site, must admit never heard of them..... Good to know they had similar results, I'm hoping that all of these small independent polls end up giving the major polling bodies a bloody nose and show them for what they are. Haven't been out to vote yet as I spent the early hours of this morning trying to get one of my cats in from out of the rain howling......  So I was absolutely drenched at 3am....


Thanks,

I have voted, so much on social media about it....The vast majority of people I know and respect are voting remain, it will be interesting to see the final result! 


Just about to go out and vote now..... Lets see if I can tip the balance for the leave campaign I'm hopeful...... but not confident....


Thanks,

Well that's it .. It is all done an dusted till next year when we will need to vote again to make really really sure we really do want to leave the EU.

All we can now do is wait and see the outcome and what is meant to be is meant to be

Well at 3:15 in the morning it's looking pretty good, wont count my chickens just yet though, but confidence of leaving is going up by the hour..... This evening you could have got 3/1 with the bookmakers to leave and 1/2 to remain this has now changed to 8/15 leave and 7/4 remain..... Still a long way to go with the results yet, but if there is a lesson to be learned I'm guessing that it would be never to trust / believe in a polling / statistical company they are so far of the mark at present I'm not sure how they are able to remain in business. My local area of Barking & Dagenham the results are now in and tie in more or less with my neighbours, spoke with the Bangladeshi tonight who changed his mind to remain. Giving the benefit of doubt to the neighbour who keeps himself to himself that he wanted to remain the boroughs results are 62% leave and 38% remain.... So my poll was more accurate than either Gallop or Yougov ........... Whatever the results, politicians up and down the country will now have to start listening more closely to the people who they represent....  I have a feeling the pub trade is going to be busy this weekend....

At 4:05 in the morning Nigel Farage declares victory for the leave campaign although there are still 118 area results to be declared, so we're currently around 2/3 into the count.... and the leave campaign are ahead by around 500,000 votes so anything can still happen.....


Thanks,
Barney

If you fancy a punt on remaining you can now get odds of 20/1 and leave is now 1/100


Thanks,

Leave campaign 1million votes in front @ 14,869,349 against the remain @ 13,880,314 whoever wins needs a target of 16.8million........


Thanks,
Barney

15,307,158 million and counting...... in touching distance now...... Stock markets around the globe are starting to crash...... The Chancellor of the Exchequer, is going to be earning his money today...


Thanks,
Barney
